Westone W20 + Audio Technica ATH-M40x

Incredible earphones

A minor learning curve to get them properly positioned in the ears, but they come with so many foam sizes that you'll have no trouble finding the right one. Just absolutely fantastic earphones. When I got them I thought: wow, $300 is a lot for some earbuds. Maybe I was having a smidgen of buyer's remorse. But once I used them I transited to a whole new world of sonic excellence, well beyond my $120 Bose earbuds. Worth every penny. Wow! I'm still in shock that earphones could sound so sublime.

Audio Technica Review

I purchased this product based on recommendations on Internet sites and a magazine on jazz. They praised it for its balanced sound, good for listening to both jazz and classical music. I found this to be the case.

The headphones sit around the ears, which is reasonably comfortable. These are not active sound-suppressing headphones, yet they do a good job reducing ambient noise.

Great replacement over my Pioneer SE-CX9-S

Great bass, isnt puchy as dynamic drivers but if have the good seal oh man that bass i can feel it, very clear highs and mids, even your not audiophile you will see the difference vs and earphones included in your phones or mp3 players. Looking for best 2 way BA drivers this is it but if you want more bass you go with hybrid or dynamic like Sennheiser, Pioneer DJE-2000 or equivalent.
